    Extrude to multiple surface

    I have tried to get the cylinder shape to go to the vert and horz surface in one action. i have tried all the options but dont seem tobe getting the right one. I either get it to choose the horz or vert but not both. It will work if i extend it through. But i rather not if i can. I also thought of making 2 semi circles more work to a point but a possibility.

    see included pic
    thanks for your input

    Craig,

    There is a new web site devoted exclusively to helping Solidworks users that was just started for those who have questions and problems like you show in the picture above. It looks to me like you might want to use a 3D sketch to do what you want to do. Suggest you post your question and Solidworks file to:

    www.solidmentor.com

    After You Have 2 Surfaces There Knit Them Together And Cut With Surface Or Extrude Up To Surface. Make Sure You Pick The Surface Knit Out Of The Tree.
